Famous quotes containing the words brother and/or earl:
“Your brother and his lover have embraced.
As those that feed grow full, as blossoming time
That from the seedness the bare fallow brings
To teeming foison, even so her plenteous womb
Expresseth his full tilth and husbandry.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“Truth, but not the whole truth, must be the invariable principle of every man who hath either religion, honour, or prudence. Those who violate it, may be cunning, but they are not able. Lies and perfidy are the refuge of fools and cowards.”
—Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
